First of all, these people were obviously more worried about public perception and politics rather than taking care of the ones they supposedly serve. And don't you find it strange that the original request for federal assistance by Blanco's office never arrived?
It has been heavily reported and confirmed that Blanco refused to declare a state of emergency, yet her office is now attempting to cover their asses with false documents to make it look as if they were pleading for assistance. Somebody call Bill Burkett!
I was thinking the same thing.
